Tagging Compilation Albums
Don't know if anybody can help me with this?
When tagging compilation albums I set the AlbumArtist tag to 'Various Artists' and the Artist to whoever the individual song is by. For some reason I can't find any of these artists when I search by 'Artist' in Kinsky. Any reason why this is happening??? Thanks. |

Thanks Simon
So simply changing 'Artist' to 'All Artists' in the Index Tag will resolve this? I'm able to search by Artist in Kinsky which then displays Artists alphabetically and allows me to see the albums by that artist. Eg, The Beatles > Rubber Soul, Sgt. Pepper's, etc. However, I'm unable to find Artists when they're part of a compliation. Eg, Turin Brakes appear on the Acoustic album which displays when I search 'Various Artists' but they don't show up when I do an 'Artist' search. |

Thanks. :-)
Looks like I need to remove the 'Artists' tag from the index tag and replace it with 'All Artists' and I'll be sorted. |

Ok, so I set 'All Artists' in the index tag and nothing. No 'All Artists' option in Kinsky at all. Restared and rescanned Minimwatch and no change. :-(
What am I doing wrong? |
